The thief comes only to steal and kill and destroy; I have come that they may have life, and have it to the full.   John 10:10

This is the hardest story I have ever told. It is my story of struggling with anxiety, panic attacks anxiety and depression.  Many of you have heard parts of this story, but this is the more complete picture.

My story will contain references to counseling and medical care and I want to be clear- I am not here to tell you to change any protocol with counselors or doctors because we are mind, body, and spirit and all are to be attended to. I am writing here to address the spiritual side of our lives and to let you know we do have a Great Physician in Jesus Christ.

I will publish part II tomorrow.
